Chapter 308: Pay the Price
Mingcui Palace.
Xie Fuyao lightly scooped a mouthful of golden silk bamboo shoot porridge and nodded with satisfaction, worthy of the craftsmanship of purple jade.
The entrance is fragrant, chewy, and the lips and teeth are fragrant after a bite, and I don't know how many times better than the green vegetable porridge I boiled.
"Master, this is the jewelry sent by the eldest lady. Ziyu followed Xie Fuyao's request and moved the box of jewels back to the table.
"Let's put it there for now. Listening to the footsteps outside, Xie Fuyao knew that Yuan Zheng had arrived, so he waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go out.
"The courtiers, please Concubine Ying, please be safe. Yuan Zheng followed the etiquette and gave Xie Fuyao a salute in a proper manner.
"Get up. Xie Fuyao sandwiched a piece of steamed chestnut flour cake with osmanthus sugar and said absentmindedly.
"It's really strange how the eldest aunt has time to visit her niece. ”
Yuan Zheng hesitated and didn't know how to speak, but he happened to see the jewelry box he had sent, which happened to be placed on the small table next to him.
"Little Eight, you still like the things that your aunt gave you, don't you? Although they are not as good as the objects in the palace, they are also treasures that I have treasured for many years. ”
Yuan Zheng stepped forward, opened the box, and put it in front of Xie Fuyao's eyes.
"I still remember when you were a child, you liked these glittering things the most, when you were ignorant and lost it to your father, now your aunt can rest assured. ”
"The eldest aunt is really generous. Xie Fuyao glanced at the contents of the full box with his spare eyes, and every item was basically a priceless treasure.
"It's not important what you like, just like it. Seeing that Xie Fuyao's expression softened, Yuan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, this golden imitation butterfly wing jade tassel hairpin is familiar and tight. Xie Fuyao put down the jade chopsticks in his hand and put the hairpin in his hand to play with it.
"I remember when I was a child, there was also a hairpin like this in the room, I don't know why, it suddenly disappeared, and then I didn't find it, I didn't expect you to have an identical one here. ”
"Yes, that's really fateful, if you like it, you can take it all. The corners of Yuan Zheng's mouth stiffened, and he smiled awkwardly.
It's been too long, and she forgot where she got this baby from, but she didn't expect Xiaoba's memory to be so good, and she still remembers the things of her childhood clearly.
Xie Fu shook the corners of his mouth, Yuan Zheng was really cheeky as always, using his own things as gifts to please himself.
"Keep this hairpin, and the other aunts will take it, I never want anything that doesn't belong to me. Xie Fu smiled leisurely.
Yuan Zheng's face was blue and white for a while, didn't Xie Fuyao say this to tell himself that he stole this hairpin from her?
Yuan Zheng didn't speak, Xie Fuyao also chose to be silent, eating the rose cake in front of him without hurrying, anyway, it was she who was anxious now instead of herself.
"Xiaoba, I know that you have always held a grudge against your aunt and felt that your third sister robbed your husband, but now that I think about it, you can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. ”
Yuan Zheng pretended to be cordial and took two steps forward, and approached Xie Fuyao, "Think about it, if Yu'er hadn't married the rebel king, you would be the one who is suffering in the prison cell now." ”
"Auntie, I think you are mistaken, even if Xie Yurou doesn't rob it, I won't marry Wei Zheng. Xie Fuyao sneered.
"Do you think I'm still free to be deceived as I used to, or do you think that playing the emotional card will work with me? ”
"Hachi, what do you mean by that? You weren't ...... at the time."
Yuan Zheng remembered that at that time, Xie Fuyao could be regarded as a deep affection for Wei Zheng, if Yu'er hadn't taken the lead in getting Wei Zheng, Princess Xuan would have been Xie Fuyao.
"It seems that the eldest aunt still doesn't know anything, didn't you try to stop the third sister at that time, weren't you afraid that I had bad intentions? Why don't you remember now?"
Xie Fu raised his eyebrows, and a cold light flashed in his deep eyes.
Yuan Zheng was stunned, recalling the events at that time in his mind, he had indeed advised Xie Yurou not to take risks easily.
But after Xie Yurou succeeded, this thought of himself had already been thrown out of his mind, and today Xie Fuyao mentioned it again, is there really another hidden meaning in the matter?
"That's right, just like you think, Xie Yurou's marriage to Wei Zheng was calculated by me, and Xie Yurou's current fate is also in my plan. ”
Xie Fu lowered his eyes and sneered, every word she said was like a sharp blade Ling Chi Yuan Zheng's heart.
"You...... You poisonous woman. Yuan Zheng pointed at Xie Fuyao angrily, she couldn't wait to tear the person in front of her to pieces.
"Wasn't the eldest aunt acting very well just now, why is this the original form revealed, didn't you come this time to beg me to save Xie Yurou? Xie Fuyao stood up and looked at Yuan Zheng with a playful expression.
"You...... You're not going to help me at all, you're going to kill my daughter. Yuan Zheng's eyes widened and he roared like crazy.
"Be quiet, this is the palace. Xie Fuyao showed a dark smile.
"Whether you save people or not depends on my mood, if your suicide is in front of me, maybe I will consider it. ”
"Xie Fuyao, you actually want my life, don't forget that I am your eldest aunt. Yuan Zheng was stunned by her eyes, and silently took two steps back.
"Yes, auntie, you really put gold on your face, how you treated me since I was a child, have you forgotten?"
Xie Fuyao took the hairpin in his hand, gently scraped Yuan Zheng's neck, and pressed it against her throat.
"Xiaoba, is it because of this that you hate me so much, do you hate Yu'er so much? If so, the eldest aunt apologizes to you, can't you admit your mistakes......
Yuan Zheng heard the sound of her own rapidly accelerating heartbeat, her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground.
"If you really knew you were wrong, you wouldn't have said that, how my mother died, you wouldn't forget. Xie Fuyao squatted down and stared at Yuan Zheng.
"That was done by Wu Shan, what does it have to do with me? She died some time ago, and you can be regarded as avenging your mother. ”
Yuan Zheng's palms were covered with wet sweat, and she never thought that Xie Fuyao would suddenly mention Hua Jinsu's matter.
"Although Wu Shan has a big temper, she has never had a city government, if it weren't for your instigation behind her back, how could she think of such a trick as poisoning people. ”
Xie Fuyao pressed Yuan Zheng's hand and said coldly, like a golden stone and a jade.
"You want to talk about evidence, and I say that I didn't do it, that is, I didn't do it, and your mother's business has nothing to do with me. ”
Yuan Zheng pulled his hand back violently, rubbing against the carpet of the Mingcui Palace and constantly retreating.
